    Carol how old are you!;) :)

    It's lovely china.

    Blooming expensive too (not that we paid, obviously ;)).

    I think we have set of 8, but if I could up that to 12, say, it would be handy.

    I suppose the only up-side is that it might be going for a good price on Ebay soon!

    Some of the replies to my post made me giggle, which at least is something positive in this shower of gloomy forecasts. I was feeling really down until I read the responses - thanks to all!

    Dusting, no - with a 2 year old, it's all stored carefully, I can assure you. :rolleyes:

    But oh yes, very careful washing it up, believe me. ;)

    Then you can invite 4 more round for dinner. Let me see; Brodders, Really, Pickles and... well, maybe not.
    The conversation would be lively but the china might not survive the evening.

    Just got a marketing email from eBay today urging me to "free up some cash" by flogging off stuff on their site..... Sign of the times, I guess.

    Surely the price would get pushed up, rather than down - it's now rarer ... (or something like that?)

    On the contrary, give them a duster, and I'm sure they'd enjoy it immensely.

    The china might not though. :eek:
